HR people who write these things often have _NO IDEA_ WHAT THEY ARE WRITING.

Not enough stupid? Lets do surge of stupid!

Whatever. Oracle. Pfffft.

Article's author lives in a bubble of fantasy of utopian communism. The reality is that parents who care enough are going to choose the best option for their kids if they can.

Some public schools are just shit, and a lifetime of effort cannot fix them.

My fucks given? None.

Take over right away. Don't let him do anything. Ask lots and lots of questions. Take notes.

1. Get da passwords. Verify them.
2. Support contracts.
3. "What are common problems"
4. "Can I get your email" :)

I absolutely agree. In a work environment where collaboration and communication are needed to reach an end goal, telework sucks. The latency and opportunity for misunderstanding are strong. I've been able to hash out more in an hour over a few pints than in several week over email or chat. Just saying. There's a lot to be said for hearing your peer's ideas and for being able to challenge each other in person. Email totally sucks ass, because it's not a conversation. It's one way.

Not to say that being the office is always awesome either. In an undisciplined office environment, constant interrupts can ruin productivity. If everyone respects each other and trusts them to get the job done then it can be cool.

Ok. If he thinks it sucks then invite him to make it better. Cause you're awesome like that and have so much free time.

Bah. Non-competes are bullshit lawyer scare tactics. It's very difficult to win these cases in court. If HP wants to persue this they're just Trolling for some money from GM because apparently they can keep good employees or make money any other way.

Enthusiast ARM computer? Ha ha.

More seriously though how many folks who are "enthusiasts" upgrade CPU or mobo? I'm thinking they probably dump the pair together for an upgrade if they have that kind of money. So in my mind making the cpu a permanent part of the mobo makes sense and can lower cost as well. Sounds like a win to me.

An earlier post made a good point too. Gold has gotten really frick'n expensive. A SMT solder mount does away with that.

The iPhone 5 will absolutely CRUSH in Q4. Not a hater. I'm one of the GS3's in that Q3 number. I was about to buy the iPhone 5 but then Amazon was selling the GS3 for $99 and got my attention. That was that.

Developers developers developers...

I use FireAMP on my phone, but obviously if you are security conscious keep the bluetooth turned off when in public. And only use WiFi hot spots that you trust.

Yeah, you know they're using Oracle VM. There's no polish for that turd. I wouldn't put anything there that I care about, unless I want to loose my job.

Government? Really? Mmmmm. No.
